I got into powerlifting back in 2013 and even entered some competitions. Early on, I injured myself pretty good because of bad form. Once I got the form down, I started going heavy. My 1 rep maxes were ok and I finally topped 1,000 lbs on the big 3 in 2015 (age 49).
Squat - 380
Bench - 240
Deadlift - 485
Overhead press - 145
I had a heart attack in 2015. 3 main arteries clogged 80%-90%. No damage to my heart. Doc thought the powerlifting might have helped save me. I stopped lifting after that. Kindof got the awf#*$its.
Feeling pretty good nowadays so I am getting back into it. Well off my old 1RM's but man, does it feel good to move iron again.
Anyone else into powerlifting or olympic lifts?
